The collapse of the Roman Empire and the arrival of the Barbarians was due to the spread of homosexuality,


A few thoughts:

1) it was not the only thing. There are usually several things that bring down a civilization

2) Homersexuality is a behavior and it has a lot of related destructive behaviors.

One of the reasons given for the rise in Christianity is that Christians (and Jews) valued children. They did not practice abortion or infanticide.

Because of this and widespread homosexuality in Pagan Rome, Roman cities were unable to reproduce themselves. They relied on constant immigration to maintain their populations.

So, Christians were better at reproducing. Rodney Stark gives several other reasons and advantages Christians had in Roman society.

Edward Gibbon in his work, “The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire”, postulated that Christianity was a major cause of the fall of Rome. He is mostly wrong, and only correct to the extent that Christians would not send their sons to fight for Sodomite legions. Homosexuality is the root cause.

Homosexuality and paedophilia are part of a congeries of signs that a civilization is collapsing.
